When Daniel Smalley saw the Mark II holographic video display at MIT, he had to have one. And he will, thanks to a new approach he devised that could produce reasonably priced standard-definition, full-color holograms. “I had to come up with something much, much less expensive,” Smalley, who recently defended his thesis at MIT Media Lab, told Photonics Spectra. “The Mark II was, and still is, a sprawling mass of expensive, one-of-a-kind electro-optics, originally run by a 6-ft rack of RF [radio frequency] electronics and a supercomputer.” A hologram of a...Read full article
